Ingredients
- 1 cup Steel cut oats
- 3 cups Water
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Pure maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Directions

Add the water, almond milk, and salt to a medium-sized saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the steel-cut oats.
Step 3
Simmer the oats, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pan, for about 20-25 minutes or until the oats reach your desired level of creaminess and texture.
Step 4
Stir in the ground cinnamon and optional maple syrup. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
Step 5
Divide the oatmeal into bowls and serve hot with your choice of toppings.
